Mistake
« on: September 06, 2011, 12:26:03 PM »
It was all a mistake: me, a scandal in the early 1960s when,
My mother (June) was in the midst of an extra-marital affair,
With the man (Randall) who would become my Dad, discovered she was pregnant.
Sick of her first husband, not caring one iota for her first two children: Daniel & Lesley,
She dumped her first family for this classical singer who'd only been there since 1959,
In his early 20s with a dream to study classical voice with an eminant Danish singer & teacher.

Soon it was it was the 'June & Randall' show. Taking the city by storm. In those days,
The radio was a formidable means of transporting sound....unlike what it has devovled into now.

Mummy is with her singer-man again!", announced my older half brother,
To my mother and his father who did not want to hear,
And...the pregnancy was a problem: me.
My mother: begging her her husband (who was NOT my father but was Lesley's),
To take me on as HIS baby and  not hers. Well! What do you think of a mother like that?
I know what I think.     H.
